1 And Joshua3091 the son1121 of Nun5126 sent7971 out of4480 Shittim7851 two8147 men376 to spy7270 secretly,2791 saying,559 Go1980 view7200 853 the land,776 even Jericho.3405 And they went,1980 and came into935 a harlot's802 2181 house,1004 named8034 Rahab,7343 and lodged7901 there.8033
|
1 嫰之子約書亞由失亭私遣二偵、曰、爾往哉、窺察斯土、及耶利哥。二偵遂往、入妓室而宿焉、妓名喇合。
|
|
2 And it was told559 the king4428 of Jericho,3405 saying,559 Behold,2009 there came935 men376 in hither2008 tonight3915 of the children4480 1121 of Israel3478 to search out2658 853 the country.776
|
2 或告耶利哥王曰、今日薄暮、以色列族人至此、窺察我地。
|
|
3 And the king4428 of Jericho3405 sent7971 unto413 Rahab,7343 saying,559 Bring forth3318 the men376 that are come935 to413 thee, which834 are entered935 into thine house:1004 for3588 they be come935 to search out2658 853 all3605 the country.776
|
3 耶利哥王遣人、謂喇合曰、有人至此、窺察我地、已入爾室、爾攜之來。
|
|
4 And the woman802 took3947 853 the two8147 men,376 and hid6845 them, and said559 thus,3651 There came935 men376 unto413 me, but I knew3045 not3808 whence4480 370 they1992 were:
|
4 喇合旣匿二人、則曰、有人至我、不知何自、
|
|
5 And it came to pass1961 about the time of shutting5462 of the gate,8179 when it was dark,2822 that the men376 went out:3318 whither575 the men376 went1980 I know3045 not:3808 pursue7291 after310 them quickly;4118 for3588 ye shall overtake5381 them.
|
5 迨暝、閉邑門時、二人已出、不知何往、速追可及。
|
|
6 But she1931 had brought them up5927 to the roof1406 of the house, and hid2934 them with the stalks6086 of flax,6593 which she had laid in order6186 upon5921 the roof.1406
|
6 蓋喇合引二人至屋上、有胡麻梗臚陳於彼、卽藏其中。
|
|
7 And the men376 pursued7291 after310 them the way1870 to Jordan3383 unto5921 the fords:4569 and as soon as310 834 they which pursued7291 after310 them were gone out,3318 they shut5462 the gate.8179
|
7 耶利哥人追至約但津、旣出、邑門旋閉。
|
|
8 And before2962 they1992 were laid down,7901 she1931 came up5927 unto5921 them upon5921 the roof;1406
|
8 未寢、喇合升屋、
|
|
9 And she said559 unto413 the men,376 I know3045 that3588 the LORD3068 hath given5414 you853 the land,776 and that3588 your terror367 is fallen5307 upon5921 us, and that3588 all3605 the inhabitants3427 of the land776 faint4127 because of4480 6440 you.
|
9 謂其人曰、耶和華曾以此地錫爾、我所素知、斯土之人懼爾、甚至喪膽、
|
|
10 For3588 we have heard8085 853 how834 the LORD3068 dried up3001 853 the water4325 of the Red5488 sea3220 for4480 6440 you, when ye came out3318 of Egypt;4480 4714 and what834 ye did6213 unto the two8147 kings4428 of the Amorites,567 that834 were on the other side5676 Jordan,3383 Sihon5511 and Og,5747 whom834 ye utterly destroyed.2763 853
|
10 爾出埃及時、耶和華使紅海水涸、約但東亞摩哩王西宏及噩、爲爾殲滅、我所風聞。
|
|
11 And as soon as we had heard8085 these things, our hearts3824 did melt,4549 neither3808 did there remain6965 any more5750 courage7307 in any man376 because of4480 6440 you: for3588 the LORD3068 your God,430 he1931 is God430 in heaven8064 above,4480 4605 and in5921 earth776 beneath.4480 8478
|
11 我聞之喪膽、毫無銳氣、不敢敵爾、蓋爾上帝耶和華、乃天上地下之上帝、
|
|
12 Now6258 therefore, I pray4994 you, swear7650 unto me by the LORD,3068 since3588 I have showed you kindness,6213 5973 2617 that ye859 will also1571 show6213 kindness2617 unto5973 my father's1 house,1004 and give5414 me a true571 token: 226
|
12 我今待爾以仁慈、請爾指耶和華而誓、亦以仁慈待我全家、示我以真實之印誌。
|
|
13 And that ye will save alive2421 853 my father,1 and my mother,517 and my brethren,251 and my sisters,269 and all3605 that834 they have, and deliver5337 853 our lives5315 from death.4480 4194
|
13 我父母、兄弟、姊妹、及凡所有、爾必保其生存、免於死亡。
|
|
14 And the men376 answered559 her, Our life5315 for8478 yours, if518 ye utter5046 not3808 853 this2088 our business.1697 And it shall be,1961 when the LORD3068 hath given5414 us853 the land,776 that we will deal6213 kindly2617 and truly571 with5973 thee.
|
14 二人曰、我之所爲當祕勿宣、則我以己命代爾、迨耶和華以斯土予我、我必待爾以仁慈、真實無妄。
|
|
15 Then she let them down3381 by a cord2256 through1157 the window:2474 for3588 her house1004 was upon the town2346 wall,7023 and she1931 dwelt3427 upon the wall.2346
|
15 喇合居室、附於邑垣、故以索縋二人、由牖而下、
|
|
16 And she said559 unto them, Get1980 you to the mountain,2022 lest6435 the pursuers7291 meet6293 you; and hide yourselves2247 there8033 three7969 days,3117 until5704 the pursuers7291 be returned:7725 and afterward310 may ye go1980 your way.1870
|
16 謂之曰、當遁於山、自匿三日、恐追者及爾、待追者反、然後前往。
|
|
17 And the men376 said559 unto413 her, We587 will be blameless5355 of this thine oath4480 7621 2088 which834 thou hast made us swear.7650
|
17 二人曰、爾旣用絳索以縋我、必以此索、仍繫於牖、集爾父母兄弟戚屬、至於斯室、厥後我儕至斯土、則爾使我所發之誓、我必恪守。
|
|
18 Behold,2009 when we587 come935 into the land,776 thou shalt bind7194 853 this2088 line8615 of scarlet8144 thread2339 in the window2474 which834 thou didst let us down3381 by: and thou shalt bring622 thy father,1 and thy mother,517 and thy brethren,251 and all3605 thy father's1 household,1004 home1004 unto413 thee.
|
18 併於上節
|
|
19 And it shall be,1961 that whosoever3605 834 shall go out3318 of the doors4480 1817 of thy house1004 into the street,2351 his blood1818 shall be upon his head,7218 and we587 will be guiltless:5355 and whosoever3605 834 shall be1961 with854 thee in the house,1004 his blood1818 shall be on our head,7218 if518 any hand3027 be1961 upon him.
|
19 如有一人出於門外而死、則由自取、我無辜焉、惟與爾在家者、有人擊之、則罪歸我。
|
|
20 And if518 thou utter5046 853 this2088 our business,1697 then we will be1961 quit5355 of thine oath4480 7621 which834 thou hast made us to swear.7650
|
20 如以我所爲、普告於衆、則爾使我所發之誓我不恪守。
|
|
21 And she said,559 According unto your words,1697 so3651 be it.1931 And she sent them away,7971 and they departed:1980 and she bound7194 853 the scarlet8144 line8615 in the window.2474
|
21 喇合曰、可如爾言以行。遂遣之去、卽以絳索繫於牖。
|
|
22 And they went,1980 and came935 unto the mountain,2022 and abode3427 there8033 three7969 days,3117 until5704 the pursuers7291 were returned:7725 and the pursuers7291 sought1245 them throughout all3605 the way,1870 but found4672 them not.3808
|
22 二人往山、居彼三日、待追者反、蓋追者求之於途不得。
|
|
23 So the two8147 men376 returned,7725 and descended3381 from the mountain,4480 2022 and passed over,5674 and came935 to413 Joshua3091 the son1121 of Nun,5126 and told5608 him853 all3605 things that befell4672 them:
|
23 二人下山、濟河而歸、以實告約書亞、
|
|
24 And they said559 unto413 Joshua,3091 Truly3588 the LORD3068 hath delivered5414 into our hands3027 853 all3605 the land;776 for even1571 all3605 the inhabitants3427 of the country776 do faint4127 because of4480 6440 us.
|
24 曰彼地之民恐懼喪膽、故我知耶和華必以斯土付於我手。
